Insurance

[Bob and Judy Holmes <jbholmes@nwlink.com>]

First, an update for all the non - board members on this list. We held the 
board meeting last Thursday night at our proposed new meeting site, Weter 
Hall on the SPU campus. All board members present found the facility to be 
quite acceptable for GSAS meetings and agreed to pursue securing it for our 
use. Two issues have yet to be worked out: One is the SPU insurance 
requirement and the other is library cart storage.

Here's the final word from Judy Bruce at SPU regarding insurance; They 
cannot attach us to their policy as a "rider" as was discussed earlier, but 
they are willing to wave the insurance requirement and instead write a 
clause into the rental contract disclaiming any and all liability on their 
part. This seems reasonable to me, but it also points out that buying 
liability insurance might be a very wise thing for GSAS to do.
I have no idea what the cost would be, or how much insurance we should buy, 
or from what company. Maybe we are somewhat protected by being a non-profit 
corporation? If anyone has any comments or ideas regarding this matter or 
would be willing to do some investigating into it please let me know.

Judy will be out of the office until Thursday, March 25 and I will contact 
her regarding cart storage at that time.  Apparently we can't use the 
dumbwaiter because of fire code requirements but most likely will be able 
to use the radio station office.
